I wasn't planning to go for a vintage style when I started out, I meant to keep the card rather clean, and I think I ended up with a result somewhere in between...
I have used three different design papers, flowers, lace, ribbon and a metal butterfly. The image is cut out from a design paper, the text is stamped.
I enter his card into the following challenges:
1) Frosted Designs -Sketch #16
2) Crafts and Me - #80 Vintage
3) Prairie Fairy Fridays - #77 Anything with Flowers
4) Paper Pretties - Card for Girls
5) Make it Monday - Anything Goes
6) Whoopsi Daisy - Anything Goes
7) Paper Sundaes - Anything Goes
8) Craft Your Days Away - #42 Metal
9) Shelly's Images - Anything goes

ReplyDeleteWhat a luscious vintage look, so soft, feminine! Beautiful image and papers, they go together perfectly and the flowers and butterfly are the perfect finishing touches. Beautiful! So glad you played along with us at Frosted Designs. Aloha.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely Pia! I really like the elongated shape. I don't vary from a square very often although I love shaped cards. Very pretty combination of elements and design. Thank so much for visiting my blog. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteStunning creation, love the image, thanks for sharing with us at Prairie Fairy Fridays, we're happy to have you!

Well Pia, you've created a gorgeous card here. I love the curves the die around the sentiment and the floral spray is lovely with that tiny bow and the crocheted lace is superb. A fantastic image you've highlighted as well. :)
